BioSimSpace.Metadynamics.CollectiveVariable.
Torsion
(atoms, hill_width=0.3500 radians, lower_bound=None, upper_bound=None, grid=None, pbc=True)¶ A class for torsion based collective variables.
-
__init__
(atoms, hill_width=0.3500 radians, lower_bound=None, upper_bound=None, grid=None, pbc=True)¶ Constructor.
- Parameters
atoms ([int, int, int, int]) – The indices of the four atoms involved in the torsion.
hill_width (
Angle
) – The width of the Gaussian hill used to sample this variable.lower_bound (
Bound
) – A lower bound on the value of the collective variable.upper_bound (
Bound
) – An upper bound on the value of the collective variable.grid (
Grid
) – The grid on which the collective variable will be sampled. This can help speed up long metadynamics simulations where the number of Gaussian kernels can become prohibitive.pbc (bool) – Whether to use periodic boundary conditions when computing the collective variable.
